A member asked:
Does drinking lots of water help cleanse the liver?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Your liver doesn't need to be cleaned. Anyone telling you otherwise is taking advantage of people's natural wish to be deceived. However, drinking plenty of water is a very good health habit. One of several reasons is that it makes it easier to get rid of salt -- most prepared food is way oversalted.
